[QUOTE="soberups, post: 796973, member: 14668"] The may have ridden a bit smoother, but with no power steering and the turning radius of an aircraft carrier they were utterly brutal to drive. Try doing a 15-point turnaround on a narrow gravel driveway in one. They also had totally inadequate leg room for anybody over 3 feet tall. When I drove one, my knees were bent out sideways around that little Pinto steering wheel and I had to press the pedals with the sides of my feet. I felt like I was getting an exam with my feet up in the stirrups at an OB/GYN. The seat was pretty much an upholstered board, with an inch or two of dryer lint for padding. And the stick shift was of the optimum height and position to whack me in the nut sack every time I got up to open the bulkhead door. These vehicles were pure crap and they should have been sent straight from the assembly line to the crusher. [/QUOTE]
